Hi Michiel,

I'm using GtkAgg. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but issue 531's problem
is with blitting, for me blitting works, I'm able to speed up plotting
using canvas.copy_from_bbox(), canvas.restore_region() & canvas.blit().
It's just that after plotting, if I try to pan or zoom using the pan/zoom
buttons on the navigation toolbar, whatever I've plotted disappears & the
whole thing becomes blank. I'm able to pan/zoom if I use canvas.draw() but
plotting is too slow because it redraws everything.

Regards,
Clare.
